The University of New Orleans Office of Accessibility Services (formerly referred to as the Office of Disability Services) is recognized as the University authority on accommodations for students with disabilities.
University policy calls for reasonable accommodations to be made for students with documented disabilities on an individualized and flexible basis. However, it is the responsibility of students to seek available assistance at the University and to make their needs known.

ODS has several forms which must be completed by students for varying purposes. There are distinctive procedures to follow. Understanding the procedures for the forms is very important.
UNO is committed to equal access for persons with disabilities. As such, we strive to remove barriers to facilities and programs wherever they exist. You may report a physical barrier to access (such as a blocked entrance, elevator breakdown, etc.) using the form in the link below. Completing the form does not constitute filing a formal complaint or grievance. UNO will follow up in as timely a manner as the information provided permits.
The University of New Orleans may be responsible for relocation of classes when the inaccessibility of the classroom prohibits class attendance for a student with a documented disability. Learn more about problematic locations, alternative seating, and requesting accommodations.
